How I see the main event.
Manuwa:
Strengths:
Fight ending KO power in his punches, knees and kicks. Lightning fast strikes, importantly his leg kicks as well.
Good at defending on the ground and scrambling to his feet.
Good in the clinch against the cage.
Weaknesses:
Easily taken down.
Chin that can be cracked.
May not have the gas tank for 5 rounds, particularly against a takedown heavy gameplan.
Corey Anderson:
Strengths:
Good takedowns, good recovery after being hit hard, young fighter that could improve as he ages and solid cardio.
Weakness:
Very hitable, if his legs get taken away from him his whole style is compromised (see the Gian Villante fight).
Conclusions:
Manuwa can land the big shot at any point, particularly early in the fight, he can take Corey's legs away from him with fast leg kicks. Knees in the clinch or while defending a takedown are also good weapons for him.
Corey may he able to grind Manuwa down with a grappling heavy gameplan for the win.
Not sure which way to go on this one, leaning towards the Corey bet simply because he is paying +215 at the moment, will have to think about it.
